Managing Student Behavior: Self-Esteem vs. Self-Control
Michael Thallemer, MAT

Abstract
The goal of this paper is to challenge the commonly held belief that classroom disciplinary problems are more often than not due to issues of low self-esteem in students. The reality is that building self-esteem has led to a generation of narcissists that believe the world revolves around them. This paper explores some of the negative consequences of self-esteem and suggests that building the students ability to use self-control is a more effective approach to classroom management. And finally this paper suggests various techniques to instill self-control in students.
For decades psychologists have viewed self-esteem as the defining trait that would fix all that is wrong with society. Among other things, it was assumed that having high self-esteem would lead to better health, better marriages, and a greater chance of success in life (Baumeister, 2005). The idea of boosting children’s self-esteem is a natural extension of this notion. Many schools have instituted programs that are designed to develop students’
sense of self-worth. As Baumeister points out, students are encouraged to create collages and lists that celebrate how wonderful they are. Trophies are given to every child in Little League and many athletic programs in elementary schools don’t keep score so as not to hurt anyone’s feelings.
While these programs are grounded in the earliest studies of self-esteem and academic achievement, Baumeister believes that they ultimately do more harm than good. According to Baumeister (2005), “These studies show not only that self-esteem fails to accomplish what we had hoped, but also that it can backfire and contribute to some of the very problems it was thought to thwart” (p. 36). Baumeister goes on to say; “Self-loving brutes run the gamut from playground bullies, to violent gang members, to wife beaters, to warmongering tyrants like Hitler and Saddam Hussein” (p.38).
According to the documentary Waiting for Superman (Birtel & Guggenheim, 2010), the U.S. ranked 25th in math among 30 developed countries and 21st in science, but American children ranked first in confidence. This ranking reflects the approach many American parents take when raising their children. Parents are valuing self-esteem and confidence over any real measure of achievement.
As Samantha Cleaver, a noted public school teacher in Washington, D.C., and author of the article “Too Much of a Good Thing?”(2007) stated:
For decades our culture has concentrated on teaching self-esteem first, learning second. In the late 1980s, a California government task force found no connection between low self-esteem and societal ills, such as drug use, teen pregnancy, and school underachievement. Still, California forged ahead with a self-esteem education plan.
Today, raising children’s self-esteem continues to be a primary goal in the classroom, and a goal of parents at home. Downplaying grades, praising children for minimal effort, or using neutral-colored green or purple pens to comment on written work seems harmless enough, but we may be taking away the sense of satisfaction and pride that comes from genuine achievement (p. 31).
Too much praise can be dangerous if it leads students to focus on how praise makes them feel rather than on learning new information (Cleaver, 2007).
This paper will explore the origins of the commonly held belief that low self-esteem is one of the main causes of low achievement and disciplinary problems in the classroom today. It will also describe what many educators now believe are the true causes of these problems and why teaching self-control is a more effective approach for classroom management. Finally, this paper will describe effective methods for coping with disciplinary problems in the classroom, many of which favor self-control over self-esteem.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to argue the epistemic peculiarity of organizational studies, which have an object of study, research methodology and theory developed, and the peculiarity of interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity that characterize when it comes to know, understand and participate in the organization, which is the object of study. Leagues and complementarities arise with management science and other social sciences; hence the need to provide epistemic identity to organizational studies is considered, through its philosophical, methodological and theoretical peculiarities, by creating a research program from the perspective of Imre Lakatos.
Keywords: Organizational Theory, Organizational Studies, Epistemology, Research Program, Epistemic identity.
1. Introduction
The organization as the object of study has evolved over time, and at the same time, has been generated new approaches that from the ontological and epistemological point of view are looking for know it, explain it or understand it. According to Ramirez, Vargas and de la Rosa, such approaches complement each other, link, and above all improve the possibilities to understand and transform human organizations, supported on the foundations of the studies of the administration, which constitute a solid discipline that has been contributed by decades to the systemization of best practices for driving the development of enterprises. The origins of the Administration are located conventionally in the works of Taylor and Fayol at the beginning of the past century, with this discipline acquires a place in the sciences from the organizational theory that is carried out in their field.
From then on, the Administration has developed a long journey, which includes its epistemological and methodological definition that has been clarified and has allowed its progress as a science. For its part, the Organizational studies share with the Administration the "material basis" (Ibarra & Montaño, 1986, p.13), it means, the theories developed by organizational theory, in addition to other theoretical artifacts from the sociology, psychology and even the human biology, from there emanates the multidisciplinary approach that characterizes them and at the same time, the need for a definition and epistemological legitimacy in the academic world.
